Inner Chains – First patch adds more options, does not address optimization issues


Telepaths’ Tree has released the first patch for its latest horror first-person title, Inner Chains. This pach adds some more graphics options, adds new sound effects, introduces melee tutorial in Chapter II, and increases zombie speed movement by 20%.

Unfortunately, this patch does not address the optimization issues we reported in our PC Performance Analysis article.

Telepaths’ Tree is currently working on the option to disable head bob and menu localizations, and claimed that its next big patches will bring more gameplay changes and AI improvements.

This patch will be auto-downloaded from Steam, and you can read its complete changelog below.
